"In our investigation, we have not uncovered a single piece of

that has turned up in Afghanistan and elsewherethat mentioned any aspect of
the Sept. 11 plot." -- FBI Director Robert Mueller, at the Commonwealth
Club in San Francisco, April 19, 2002, on evidence linking the 19 alleged
hijackers to the Sept. 11 attacks. Question: How does this square with
the certainty about hijacker identities, let alone the many stories of advance
warnings and near-misses that could have stopped them?

On
November 19, 2004, the "Justice for 9/11" Steering Committee
submitted a Citizens' Complaint and Petition to the offices of the
Attorney General of New York State, Eliot Spitzer, citing probable cause
for an independent grand jury investigation to examine unsolved crimes
committed in connection with the events of September 11, 2001. We
are publishing the complete Complaint and Petition
online in this space as a living, growing document.
Nine members of September 11 families, Ground Zero first responders, and
citizens of New York have signed
on as the first complainants. We call on citizens to support this
action, to initiate similar actions in other states, and to sign the
online petition of solidarity.
